    CNC bender.Electric vs hydrolic

    Hi Steve, The shop I deal with produces hydraulic and oxygen pipes and bleed air ducts. We used to bend 4.5" titanium (1.2mm wall) hot on our hot tube bender but the Unison machines have enabled us to bend it cold. A word of advice to people proposing to purchase Unison machines - please ask...

    Mimic Physical Properties of Avaiation Fuel

    Good morning all, Thank you for your replies and please accept my apologies for posting in multiple forums. The reason for this requirement is that we test the fittings that are swaged onto fuel pipes for leaks using a pressure test. The pipes are connected together in series and white spirit...

    Mimick the Physical Properties of Avaiation Fuel

    Hi all, I am after a liquid, preferably water-based that mimics the physical properties of aviation fuel. I do not want anything flammable or explosive, just something that will simulate its physical properties particularly when under pressure. I am sure there must be some additive that you...
